In Searching for a 'Principle of Humanity' in International Humanitarian Law, international legal scholars consider whether humanitarian considerations have an independent legal impact on IHL beyond the formation of these norms. They ask whether a 'principle of humanity' can be said to have legal force in its own right. Moreover, the book investigates whether regional or national differences are emerging regarding the import and emphasis placed on humanitarian considerations. For instance, do states which are not directly affected by armed conflict attach a greater weight to humanitarian considerations when interpreting and applying IHL than those states which are more directly involved in armed conflicts? Specifically, this book examines whether a particular 'Nordic perspective' can be identified, owing to those states' involvement in armed conflicts outside their own territories in the post- Second World War era. 606 $aHumanitarian law 615 0$aHumanitarian law. 676 $a341.6/7 702 $aLarsen$b Kjetil Mujezinovic?$f1976- 702 $aCooper$b Camilla Guldahl 702 $aNystuen$b Gro 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779344903321 996 $aSearching for a 'principle of humanity' in international humanitarian law$93726198 997 $aUNINA
